Mobile device batteries are probably the piece of hardware that causes the most headaches for engineering departments in large companies. And it is that in the end they are the part of the devices that degrades the most and that is most affected by software problems. Nail batteries that are having quite a bit of trouble on many iPhones...
Well, in the official support channels of the boys of the block, Apple promised bug fixes would arrive with the next version of iOS, iOS 10.2.1, but it has been verified again that these errors are still present in a multitude of iDevices ...
And it is that many of you will be among all those users who see as their iPhone shuts down when it reaches 30% battery, and we already tell you that this does not only happen with the iPhone 6s that are currently within a battery replacement program to correct these errors. I personally know several people with iPhone 6 with these same problems. And is that these problems are becoming quite widespread and it seems that the origin of all is in the launch of iOS 10.1 in the past month of October.
The strange thing is that in some cases batteries go from 30% available battery to 1% before shutting down, when connecting the iPhone to a charger the battery shows again that it is at 30% capacity. iOS 10.2 seems to have aggravated these problems, and iOS 10.2.1 continues along the same lines ... Apple already has about 125 pages on this topic in its support forum so they should put solutions to a problem that seems to be spreading by many users. We will see how they solve these problems, a very important problem that should be solved via software in principle, yes, we can only wait, if you go to an Apple Store they will only give you the solution to change the batteries by paying for new ones.
Fortunately, my iPhone 7 plus has never suffered from battery, even my previous 6 plus did not have them either.
My 6s has had the Apple battery changed and the battery problems are over. It is not software, it is hardware.
More than a software problem, it seems to me it is the batteries themselves that have deteriorated. It happens to me constantly on ios 9 and an iphone 4s. It is clear that with 5 years behind the battery you do those strange things. In this case we are talking about devices of 2 years on average, although they are not the same battery as the 4s.
In summary, I think it is more of a problem in the HW of certain devices than the SW.
iPhone 6 64Gb is 1 year old and 30% turns off
Anyway, they changed my iPhone 6s battery and the problem is over
I have two iPhone 6plus with the same problem. So clear and simple. And on an iPhone 6sPlus
The same happens to me .
It will never be solved via Software. Upgrading to iOS 10 screwed up the batteries. What started as a software problem has ended in a hardware problem.
Changing the battery is solved, but it doesn't come out of my balls to pay € 79 to Apple for their fault, the change has to be free.
The same thing happened to me and yesterday I sent it to the store to check it under warranty and if they have to change it, change it, it is an iphone 6s plus 64 Gb with 1 year ... this is a joke, my girlfriend has the same than me and it does not happen to him ..
That I passed into the hands of my mother!
And the battery problems got worse almost overnight!
And, to be able to use the mobile in a normal way they ask me € 97 for a battery that, although it is that bad, does not deserve those € 97 because it is a poor quality € 3 battery. And on top of that, with software that will screw up the new battery again!
And we already know the battery warranty policy, 6 months!
Well, it is already profitable ...
I am with the same problem on my iPhone 6 64g, my uncontrolled low battery is amazing, in standby rest it drops 30% in an hour .. looking at google the news it drops me 1% per minute and if I watch YouTube an 8 % per minute and that without having downloaded any app because I restored it as new, with the updates in the background locator and everything removed, I have calibrated the battery ... .. anyway I'm up to the ... and more grace makes me get updates and The most important thing is that you can look for the headphones and serious problems seem to be that it does not matter .. a theater or dark mode is important .. if the battery lasts two hours because there is some big fault?
I have the same problem with my 6-year-old iPhone 1s ... with the iOS 10.2 update, the problems of turning off not only 30% began, but 20%, 40% and even days 70%.
Yesterday I updated to version 10.2.1 (which was supposed to solve the problems) and the battery lasts for two hours ... I have done a FaceTime of 5 min and it has dropped from 75% to 19%! It's a shame ... on Monday without fail I will take it to the store and have the battery changed or that they do the appropriate, we have been like this for months!
I updated my Iphone 5 to this new version 10.2.1 and when it is charging the battery it gets crazy to write just as if someone were manipulating it I thought it was a virus. But I focus more on what is a software problem.
